The Wild
Various Artists Lyrics


Tonight I heard the wild goose cry
Wingin' north in the lonely sky
Tried to sleep, but it ain't no use
'Cause I am the brother to the old wild goose

My heart knows what the wild goose knows
And I must go where the wild goose goes
Wild goose, brother goose, which is best
A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest
The cabin is warm and the snow is deep
And I've got a woman, she lies asleep
When she wakes at tomorrow's dawn
She'll find, poor critter, that her man is gone

My heart knows what the wild goose knows
And I must go where the wild goose goes
Wild goose, brother goose, which is best
A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest

My woman was kind and true to me
Thinks she loves me, the mournful she
She's gotta learn that it ain't no use
To love the brother to the old wild goose

My heart knows what the wild goose knows
And I must go where the wild goose goes
Wild goose, brother goose, which is best
A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest

Spring is comin' and the ice will break
And I can't linger for a woman's sake
She'll see a shadow pass overhead
She'll find a feather beside my bed

My heart knows what the wild goose knows
And I must go where the wild goose goes
Wild goose, brother goose, which is best
A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest
Wild goose

We're holding on through all the years
Looking back brings me to tears
Oh, I
Wanna see this through
All I know is how I feel
And all I want is what is real
Oh, I'm
Gonna stand by you

[Pre-Chorus]
Even on your darkest days
You know that I will never change
Oh, I
Will love you the same

[Chorus]
Oh, I
Will keep you safe for all my life
And you
Will have my heart for all the time
Even on your darkest days
You know that I will never change
Oh, I
Will love you the same
Oh, I
Will love you the same

[Verse 2]
Tell me how the tables turned
How I've grown from lessons learned
Oh, I'll
Keep my faith in you

Even on my darkest days
I know that you will never change
Oh, I
Will love you the same

Even on your darkest days
You know that I will never change
Oh, I

@pbjohns337

Michaelsshadow if you are into music what do you think of Sam Smiths 'I'm not the only one'?
